Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Windshield wipers function intermittently. wipers work for several minutes and then stop for varying periods of time. some days they don't work at all. local dealer was unaware of any recalls regarding the wipers. gmc home office stated that my vehicle was not covered under campaign id number 98v150000, since my vehicle was assembled at a different plant than the affected vehicles in the recall notice. the wipers don't work reliably enough to travel in inclement weather. sudden rainstorms can cause loss of forward visibility for extended periods of time. major accidents have been averted so far, but it is a major concern for my family's safety. thanks.
